My Heart Cannot Accept it

Silene Fredriksz’ son Bryce and his girlfriend Daisy Oehlers were on Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 when it was shot down by a Russian missile over eastern Ukraine on 17 July, 2014. Russia has denied involvement and refused to cooperate with the Dutch-led international investigation, while putting out a stream of disinformation and conspiracy theories. Four years later, Fredriksz has left Bryce’s room in exactly the same state as they left it. “In my head I know they are not coming home, but my heart cannot accept it,” she says.
